I closed it. It was about old problem in UPX, which is fixed
for a long time now.

>> Bug 000385:

Without additionally feedback it is impossible to say where the
problem is. Additionally there is Makefile for compiling GRX
examples. If that compiles them OK without unresolved references,
but user own different attampt  does not, then it's a user problem.

Of course there also could be a broken installation,

>> Bug 000379:

Perhaps the reason is that bccbgi expects Borland BGI fonts to
be present, but they do not come with GRX due to licensing
problems.

>> Bug 000378:

I guess, one should come back here and close own bug as grx-2.4.7 is
available and it compiles OK with gcc-4.1.1 for DJGPP (Fedora 7,
DOSEMU-1.4.0, FreeDOS-1.0)

>> Bug 000373:
>> Sounds like a grx bug. I''ll close soon, if no opposition.

Added comment (about grx-2.4.7 and gcc-4.1.1 being compatible)
